2003-2004 Meeting Schedule
On 11 October we start off the year with an innovative panel on genre across the disciplines, which should spark a lively discussion (program attached). On 13 December we offer you a guided tour of the Princeton Index of Christian Art (another opportunity which should excite scholars of all backgrounds). On 22 February we feature comparative work on Christian, Jewish, and Islamic saints and pilgrimage sites presented by Ora Limor and Lucia Raspe, two researchers from the University of Pennsylvania's Center for Advanced Judaic Studies. (In an attempt to introduce Jewish Studies scholars to our membership this session will be our first to take place on Sunday --a scrumptious afternoon tea will be offered). Finally, on 17 April Temple University will host a panel on the interdisciplinary links in the study of sexuality and medicine.
